@zucchini@graf I'm developing a new backend. Peter still hasn't finished Revolver and he's mad about it, so late at night he's tells graf it's my fault he hasn't had enough success, and by the early morning graf is drunk enough that he believes it and launches a public attack. It's happened before.
@graf@zucchini No. I don't deserve to be treated like that. Honestly at this point you'd better fucking repent for your sins and beg your entire audience for me to forgive you.
@alex@zucchini@graf Dude, I declared you a fed before I kicked off Revolver, when the negative reaction to unilateral changes in how message tags worked prompted you to blow up and scream at everyone, and I have spent no time trying to convince graf. Your best effort always amounts to a cheap shot. You fucked off, as predicted years ago, and I figured the damage had stopped: you swat a mosquito before it drinks your blood if you can.
So the first time I meet you, the vegans have conspired to fire you from being vegan because they can't handle your beliefs, then you tell me you got run out of Philadelphia and then you tell me that you got run out of Gab for your beliefs and I don't know what the deal is with truth.social but I imagine your claim is that you were unfairly persecuted by conspirators. And I see you try to claim that you were banned from the Gitlab server due to a shadowy conspiracy that hates you for your beliefs (despite those beliefs being shared by other people that have not been banned from that server, because they know how to be professional) and then you try to claim the Pleroma team is complicit in child-trafficking (which, if you had achieved your desired effect and caused any damage, would have met the criteria for libel) and you try to rally bot and the dog-boiler and that whole crowd and they start on their "Jew! Jew! Jew!" chant and you start calling Radvinsky a "porn mongrel" (a transparent attempt to pander without, of course, being openly anti-semitic). If nothing else, I can respect someone that stands by his convictions, even if he holds holds beliefs I hate, but there is nothing to love or hate about a panderer trying to exploit people around him. You can't be persecuted for your convictions if you have none.
So a couple of days ago you announced that you intend to go out with a bang because you've been "cancelled" and it looks to me like you're back here trying to claim persecution, collecting screenshits so that you can tell people on Nostr that your work is vital because you are being persecuted for your beliefs, running the same scam. You are trying to drum up drama, because you don't know how to get people to give you money unless you can tell them that you've been unfairly punished. I was pleased that no one bit, but you've come back to be insufferable, and now you've tried to provoke me. Congratulations: here is the attention you ordered. I can't manage to get past moderate annoyance, though, so if you quote me out of context, maybe you can find something that sounds like I'm persecuting you.
A piece of advice, though, from someone that is older than you and has seen others employ your strategy: that kind of scam doesn't last forever, so it's better if you go hack on your shit instead of stirring up drama here to go run the scam on Nostr. Eventually someone there will notice that when you showed up there, you were claiming persecution, that you'd been run out on a rail, etc., and they'll put it together and you'll have to move from Nostr to something else. So instead of telling them about all of your unfair persecution, you could just get back to work so that you don't have to repeat the cycle. You've done your damage here and refused to own any of it, but in the long run, you'll be better off if you don't do similar damage there and end up playing out the same pattern. I might not have much respect for you and I will probably never be happy to see you, but I'd be glad for you if you turned it around, so good luck. alex_gleason_gonna_get_me_to_rope.png alex_gleason_hates_fedi.png alex_gleason_needs_you_to_apologize_to_his_wife.png alex_gleason_shits_the_bed.png alex_gleason_stops_sex_trafficking.png alex_gleason_versus_porn_mongrels.png
@graf@alex@zucchini He can say what he wants, but he's making his big exit and trying to farm the last of the screenshots of his "persecution", so it won't make a difference to me what he says.
